UPDATE: Body Found in Owasco River

Auburn Police are continuing to investigate the recovery of a body from the Owasco River shortly after 11 Friday morning.

Investigators say a man wearing a red jacket was found floating in the outlet near the Division Street Bridge. After being pulled from the water, the man was rushed to Auburn Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Investigators don’t believe foul play is a factor and it is possible with the water moving so rapidly the man was sucked into the current and taken downstream.
